In his speech at Scariff, Davitt denied
having counselled any further resort to
extreme violence. He had only main.

welcome Imprisonment rather than to
assist the Government to make the Act
operative.

Senator from New Hampshire.

The situation in New Hampshire will
remind Californians of the old Broderiek
and Gwin contest in this State. When
Austin f. Pike died, the Governor of
New Hampshire, the Legislature of the
State not being in session, appointed
Person c. Cheney to fill the vacant
seat in the Senatorial representation
of the State. On June lst the Legis.
lature met, aud proceeded to look
around for Senator. Several candi-
dates were proposed, among others ex-
Senator Rollins and w. E. Chandler,
but at latest dates, the irrepressible
champion of Doodle. who figured so con.
spicuously in the transactions of 1876,
had easily won.
But u new complication has arisen.
The term in the Senate to which it is
proposed to elect Mr.. Chandler expires
March 4, 1889. The next meeting of the
State Legislature will begin on June l,
1889. If the Legislature elects Chand.
ler to Pixies unexpired term, and stops
there. the seat will bevacant from March
4th to June l. 1889, unless the Governor
appoints, and his power to do so
under the circumstances was questioned
by some of the soundest lawyers in the
Senate in 1883. The question arises
precisely as it arose here thirty years
ago-whether the Legislature now in
session should not fill both terms,
Pixies unexpired term, which ends in
1889, and the full term for six years, be.
ginning March 4th of that year. 1t is
the more interesting as the Republicans
now control the Legislature, whereas
the Legislature to be elected in Novem.
ber, 1888, may possibly be Democratic.
In the old days, New Hampshire was q
reliable Democratic State.
How the Legislature may elect to
settle this question, the next few days
will tell. The Supreme Court OF New
Hampshire, to which body tine same
point was submitted in 1888, decided
that the Legislature ought to fill both
terms, and this view was taken by many
Republicans in Congress. Mr.. Chandler
is reported in the dispatches to be
against the election of Senator for the
long term. If he is, he must feel sure
that the Senate would reject him, fol
he was never known to decline any office
that was fairly within his grasp. Il [Sar

OIL News Notes,

The teams of the Mission Transfer Co.
brought in thirty huge iron oil drums on
last Wednesday, which were shipped by
steamer from San Francisco. The oil
drums are for the Sespe OIL Company,
aud were taken to well No. l, in Santa
Paula canon, to be filled with oil and
shipped by rail to Los Angeles. Each
drum has capacity of ITO gallons.
The 80, 900 barrel oil tank of the Mis-
sion Transfer Company now has an
atiractives sign, painted in letters in
white shaded lead, reading, EMISSION

are four feet in height, and three feet in
width, making 65 feet of lettering.
This artistic work was executed by j.
w. Rich.
The Mission Transfer Company will
furnish oil to the Santa Paula Brick
Company for burning brick, which will
be commenced in few weeks.
There are now about 5000 barrels OF

Punish ed by Expulsion.

PARIS, June l2.-Albert Delpit, who
has just been expelled from Alsace. was
a member of the Figaro staff. He went
to Bsnfeld, in Alsace, to see Doctor Suf-
ferman, a protesting member of the
Esichtag, who bad previously obtained
formal permission to visit Alsace on
behalf of NJ. Delpit. Upon arriving at
Benfeld Delpit was ordered by the police
to leave German territory within half an
hour. He protested and telegrapbed to
Prince Hohenlohe. the governor of Al
sace-Lorraine, who confirmed the order,
but granted Delpit twenty-four hours of
grace. The police informed Delpit that
he was expelled because he tried in
writing to rouse opposition in the minds
of those who should remain German.

A Building Boom AT Pomona.

The amount of building going on at
present in this town and valley is re-
markable, and it is quite probable the
improvements for the year will eclipse
the record of several past. Cottages and
dwellings are going up every where, and
there is demand for lumber and car
penters that cannot be supplied ON ac-
count of the building activity prevailing
elsewhere. Some large tunnels for
water are being made along the foot.
hills, Mr.. Bradbury running two in the
Live Oak Canon district, and using
large quantity of heavy timbers and
plank in their construction which keeps
the lumber company busy to furnish.
The planning mill is in operation
daily and is turning out an
immense amount of work. The
brick walls of the new winery are about
one-story high. The following is a
partial list of those who are building, or
have about completed new houses: M.
Latin, z. j. Dreher. C. Stout, Mrs.
Hauck, r. p. Rey nolds, Charles War
ren. NJ. A. Rogers, James Harvey, Dr.
Goodwin, L. d. Conner, l.. w. Carpen-
ter, j. r. Garthside, 4. j. Bartlett.
Henry Hanson, contractor, has taken
charge of the new winery buildings, is
completing three buildings in Lords
burg, erecting a $4,000 house for JAS.
Howey on Alvarado street, and S2500
house for Mrs. DIR. Howe on Third
street.
On Monday morning last Mr.. d. A.
Nell resumed charge of the masonry
work on the new winery, and is rapidly
bringing the same to completion. This
building is the most substantial that has
to date been erected in Pomona, its mas.
sive walls resting on a solid concrete
foundation-the first of its kind built
here-support the heavy girders and
joists of the second floor, on which the
immense wine tanks will be placed.
For the proper construction of such
building none but thorough, practical,
experienced mechanic would answer,
and in selecting Mr.. Nell the officers of
the Winery Company showed wisdom,
as Mr.. M is man of energy, skill and
perseverance, as the work he has exc
cuted around Pomona in the past four
years will amply testify. .-[Pomona

SETTLERS ALARMED.
RumOrs of a General Uprising of
Apaches.

NoGALEs, A. t., June l2.-The To-
dian situation is unchanged and the
troops are at loss as regards their
present whereabouts. 1t is the general
opinion, however, that they are trying
to get back north to their old stamping
ground, Tonto Basin and the Mogollan
Mountains. They will know now that
the troops as well as Gen. Miles are
familiar with the southern country and
that are pretty sure to be headed off at
all the mountain passes. There is a
perfect Gordon of troops along the line
and it now seems almost impossible for
them to cross over into Mexico.
BENSON. A. I. June l2.-Indan affairs
seem to be at standstill, as nothing
has been heard of the hostiles since the
day before yesterday. The general opin-
ion is that they are lying hid in some of
the neighboring mountains, resting them
selves and their horses. Nothing
has been heard of Lieut.. johnson for
two days. AT last report he was pur-
suing the reds toward the Catalina
mountains, and he is supposed to be still
on their trail A courier arrived here
this afternoon from Captain Mason's
command, aud reports no trail found
going into the Catalinas and the troops
are considerably puzzled. There are
numerous reports in circulation to-day
to the effect that a general outbreak at
San Carlos is imminent. but the latest
accounts fail to confirm this. Prospect.
ors and settlers from remote districts are
coming in, and people generally are on
the lookout.

Governor Bartlett, who has been stoi

month, is such as to arouse the serious

who knew MIR. Bartlett as Mayor OF
San Francisco should now see him they
would doubtless be shocked by the
change in him.
His face is sunken, his complexion
sallow, and his walk is feeble to pain
full degree. He walks with the aid OF
crutch. 1t appears that his health has
in reality reached a much lower and
more critical ebb than was ever publicly
learned, and the truth has been kept
quiet in order not to arouse public appre'
hension. He is the victim OF a variety
of complaints growing out OF over-work
rheumatism, gout, lumbago, malaria
and some affiiction of the kidney.

GALE AT SAN FRANCISCO.
SAN Francisco, June l2.-To-day was
one of the most unpleasant days that
has ever been experienced on the water
front. In the early morning the wind
was from the south and light, but shortly
before 0 Am. the wind hauled to north
west, blowing in fitful gusts and bring
ing clouds of sand from the dunes
and dust from the sea wall
and Telegraph Hill, making matters de-
oidedly unpleasant for the lightly.clad
picnickers gathered at the ferry landing
At noon the wind increased in velocity
to thirty.two miles an hour, and the sur.
face of the bay was covered with white
caps. The gale increased in violence
during the afternoon and at o'clock
it was blowing at the rate of
nearly sixty miles an hour. The
ships at anchor in the stream
strained at their cables. Little tugboats
hovered around expecting to save some
drifting vessel, hut in this speculation
they were disappointed as nearly all the
ships held firm at their moorings.
Although the wind was blowing strong
outside, the bar was not breaking and a
number of vessels pass sd in and out in
safety.

Trackiaying tn the First Five
Months of 1887.

The indications of extensive railway
construction during the past year which
were given by our records a month ago
have been fully justified since that time.
and the work of grading and tracklayine
is now going on in several portions OF
the United States at q more rapid rate
than ever before in the HISTORY of the
country. From returns received at this
office up to the end of the last month we
find that the new track, main line, laid
in the United States from January lst to
June ], 1887, period of five months,
aggregates no less than 1851 miles, on
SIS lines in 33 states and territories
This is an addition of 1877 miles since
our last months report, and gives a
total which has never before been
equalled at this season of the year, with
the exception of that year of extraordi.
nary railway building. 1882, when the
mileage constructed in the country
reached the grand total of ll,568
miles. When it Is remembered that
the work of the first four or five
months of the year is mainly that of
preparing the roadway for the rails, and
that by far the greater part of the track.
laying is done ia the last half of the
year, and when survey is made of the
great number of enterprises on which
construction work is now being actively
pushed, it will be seen that the year
1887 is destined to be notable as a year
of great railMay building. Already the
track laid down in the first five months
in which frost and rains prevail aggre-
gates about so per cent of the entire mi
leage built in the year 1885. BY way of
further comparison it may be said that it
considerably exceeds the total railway
mileage of either Massachusetts, New
Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana,
Tennessee, Kentucky or Arkansas, and
indeed of either one of some twenty of
the other States and Territories.
More than half the track thus far re-
ported laid is located as follows: Indian
Territory, 800 miles; Texas, 1866; Kan
sas, 262; Dakota, 222, making total in
these four portions of the country of
1910 miles, while California has added
l57; Colorado, l07, and Nebraska 100
miles. None of the other States, so far
as our records show, have yet laid 100
miles each, but several of then. will soon
greatly exceed that figure. The work of
is almost entirely confined
to the new west, not mile being yet
reported from the New England states
or New York, with the exception of
Massachusetts, in which eleven miles
have been laid, and only about thirty
miles are credited to the great State of
The south ia showino

ed 10 a Critical EditoriaI.

SAN DIEGO, June l2.-The San Diego
Daily Bee, one of the morning papers
which lately started as a joint stock
company with Mrs. Clara Foltz as chief
editor, came to grief this morning. 1t
seemed that the assets of the company
consisted in great part of the certificates
of stock. The material with which
the paper was printed belonged to the
Golden Era. Yesterday morning an
article was published rejecting rather
severely on the International Com.
pany of Mexico and claiming that they
had no claim to their immense ESTATES in
Lower California. The Golden Era
magazine is said to have been sold out
right by its proprietor to the Iuterna-
tional Company who took immediate
possession, and as consequence the Bee
failed to make its appearance to-day.
Several rumors are flying abou t in re-
gard to the matter.
